Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTasks Scheduling using Ant Colony OptimizationA. P. Shanthi, G. Umarani Srikanth, V. Uma Maheswari, Arul SiromoneyProblem statement: Efficient scheduling of the tasks to heterogeneous processors for any application is critical in order to achieve high performance. Finding a feasible schedule for a given task set to a set of heterogeneous processors without exceeding the capacity of the processors, in general, is NP-Hard. Even if there are many conventional approaches available, people have been looking at … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 8 · 25 Jul 2012 · 7,668 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHigh-Order Interactions in Rheumatoid Arthritis Detected by Bayesian Method using Genome-Wide Association Studies DataJing Zhang, Zheyang Wu, Chao Gao, Michael Q. ZhangProblem statement: In order to reveal the missing genetic component of Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) susceptibility, we carried out a genome-wide high-order epistatic interaction study for RA. Approach: A powerful Bayesian strategy was applied to analyze the data of Genome-Wide Association Studies (GWAS) from the Welcome Trust Case Control Consortium (WTCCC), where 319 high-order interactions were found across the whole genome … …Current Research in Medicine, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 30 Mar 2012 · 8,379 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOrdaining for Learning Culture: Educational Conservation and Development of Buddhist Monk Universities for Isan People with Limited OpportunitySanit Sumhiram, Songkoon Chantachon, Kosit PaengsoiProblem statement: Buddhist monk universities in Isan (northeast Thailand) have problems of lacking Buddhist monk students. The number of people ordained for learning decreases because Isan people do not like ordaining for learning. In order to adjust the condition of problem to catch up with current conditions, this research study was conducted. The purpose of this research was to examine … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 6 · 20 Mar 2012 · 7,261 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThird Order of Automatic Restoration Scheme Offered in Fiber ToThe Home-Passive Optical Network through Customer Access Protection UnitMohammad Syuhaimi Ab-Rahman, Siti Asma Che Aziz, Kasmiran JumariProblem statement: This study highlight on restoration scheme proposed against failure in working line at the drop region for Fiber To The Home (FTTH) with a Passive Optical Network (PON). Whereas PON is a system that brings optical fiber cable and signals all or most of the way to the end user. In this study we highlighted the issue on … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 8 Feb 2012 · 6,315 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluation of Hydrogen/Oxygen Release Compounds for the Remediation of VOCsS. Fiore, M.C. ZanettiProblem statement: Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) were widespread in groundwater of industrialized areas and in situ remediation intervents characterized by a high environmental compatibility were of main interest. The scope of this study was the evaluation of the potential of two innovative reagents (HRC and ORC from Regenesis) for the remediation of Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs). The reagents respectively perform … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 5 · 4 Nov 2011 · 7,439 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Hybrid Approach based on Winter's Model and Weighted Fuzzy Time Series for Forecasting Trend and Seasonal DataSuhartono, Muhammad Hisyam LeeProblem statement: In the literature, the most studied of fuzzy time series for the purpose of forecasting is the first order fuzzy time series model. In this model, only the first lagged variable is used when constructing the first order fuzzy time series model. Therefore, such approaches fail to analyze accurately trend and seasonal time series which is an important … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 18 Jul 2011 · 7,942 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Neuro Fuzzy Technique for Process Grain Scheduling of Parallel JobsS. V. Sudha, K. ThanushkodiProblem statement: We present development of neural network based fuzzy inference system for scheduling of parallel Jobs with the help of a real life workload data. The performance evaluation of a parallel system mainly depends on how the processes are co scheduled? Various co scheduling techniques available are First Come First Served, Gang Scheduling, Flexible Co Scheduling and Agile Algorithm … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 8 · 14 Jul 2011 · 6,457 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSolving Directly Two Point Non Linear Boundary Value Problems Using Direct Adams Moulton MethodZanariah Abdul Majid, Phang Pei See, Mohamed SuleimanProblem statement: In this study, a direct method of Adams Moulton type was developed for solving non linear two point Boundary Value Problems (BVPs) directly. Most of the existence researches involving BVPs will reduced the problem to a system of first order Ordinary Differential Equations (ODEs). This approach is very well established but it obviously will enlarge the systems of … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 18 May 2011 · 7,882 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMoments of Order Statistics from Nonidentically Distributed Three Parameters Beta typeI and Erlang Truncated Exponential VariablesA. A. Jamjoom, Z. A. AL-SaiaryProblem statement: Moments of order statistics of independent non-identically distributed (INID) random variables is not an easy subject to deal with for continuous distributions. One is forced to use messy algebraic calculations (whether one uses permanents or not). This was the motivation behind this study. In this study the moments of order statistics arising from independent nonidentically distributed three parameters … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2010 · 7,373 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Zero-Stable Optimal Order Method for Direct Solution of Second Order Differential EquationsKayode Sunday JacobProblem statement: In this study, a numerical method for direct solution of general second order differential equations was considered in order to circumvent the problems of computational burden and computer time wastage associated with method of reduction to system of first order equations. The issue of zero stability of higher order methods is considered in the development of the method. … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2010 · 7,068 accessesView PDFCite
